The book includes works by one of the greatest Russian poets N. A. Zabolotsky (1903–1958). If we try to identify the main theme, the “nerve” of his creative searches, then it will be a tragedy of the mind, reflections on the place of man in the universe. The poet wrote in different ways, but about one thing - about the greatness and at the same time about the insignificance of man in the cycle of universal life. His artistic world is “a living world, singing, thinking, clear in a thousand ways.”
